Italica Tomato Paste, 28/30%, Italy - 2200G

Tomato paste, 28/30%, 2.2kg. Italica. Italian concentrate, the single-concentrate tier, 28 to 30 percent tomato solids. Deep red, with enough body to build a sauce. The can is a restaurant can.

An Italian kitchen starts sugo, pizza sauce, and a ragù with it. Tomato soup and a stock take a spoon. Curry bases, shakshuka, and chilli use the same paste when the recipe wants tomato and not a pile of fresh fruit. A pizzeria keeps this can, not a 400g tin.

Keep it cool and dry. After opening, refrigerate in a non-metal container and use within 2 to 4 weeks, or freeze it in portions. A home kitchen does not open 2.2kg for one pot. Don't leave the open can in the tin once it is in the fridge.
